Basil T’s – Red Bank NJ
Today I met a fellow home brewer, Pete, down in Red Bank NJ at a local Brew pub that he said I had to try, Basil T’s. How could I possibly turn that down, you don’t have to twist my arm to go to a brew pub. It pretty evident this pub has been around for awhile, it has a loyal following by the hundreds of personal mugs hanging from the ceiling.

Barley Wine Sirloin Steak
I found this to be a very nice flavor, with the high alcohol content beer helps tenderize the meat. I had a homebrewed bigfoot barley wine that was bottled in September. Still a little...
La fin Du Monde
This beer had my attention right from the pour, with a huge white head and tons of carbonation, I was captivated. A really nice floral citrus aroma greets you before your first sip. With...
